Kudos on such a great cross-platform app -- it's far quicker and more
responsive than most any other cross-platform app of its kind/size that
I've seen!

I'm trying to build on win2k and believe I have all of the tools/source
setup properly, however, I must have done something wrong because I've
encountered the following error below.

This must be documented somewhere, but, of course, according to my
girlfriend, I can't find the salt when it's sitting right in front of me :-)
